Being surrounded by three Eighth Stage Miasma Serpents and still managing to counterattack and kill them!”
“Eighth Stage Miasma Serpents?
That’s average.
It’d be remarkable only if there were three Ninth Stage Miasma Serpents.”
“But Brother Wang, this student seems to be just at the Eighth Stage.”
“An Eighth Stage student?” The city guard called Brother Wang shook his head, “Nothing impressive about that.
Considering there are nearly ten Ninth Stage students in this trial, being in the top ten for an Eighth Stage student is tough~”
Yang Jian thought for a moment.
Brother Wang wasn’t wrong, but this student number 388 did seem outstanding and deserved closer attention.
“Quiet, the captain is coming!”
Suddenly, a team member at the command center door whispered a reminder.
Hearing this, everyone immediately stopped chatting and pretended to be focused on their work.
Shortly, Xiao Yong walked in with a few others.
Glancing around the command center, Xiao Yong said expressionlessly, “You all seem to be enjoying your chat.
I could hear you clearly from outside… Han Guangyuan!”
“Here!”
The city guard who had just spoken up immediately stood up.
Xiao Yong looked him over and snorted, “You still have time to tip others off.
Seems like you’re idle.
If so, go to Area B and take over rescue work from Luo Fei.”
Han Guangyuan’s face turned bitter.
Rescuing wasn’t as comfortable as sitting in the ‘office’, but under Xiao Yong’s gaze, he immediately responded, “Yes, captain!”
Saying that he obediently picked up his equipment and quickly ran out.
The others breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad they hadn’t been punished.
“What’s the situation?”
As soon as Xiao Yong walked in, he asked.
“Report, captain.
All students successfully entered the secret realm.
Currently, 78 have been eliminated, and our people are escorting them back.”
“Alright, no fatalities?”
“No.
Among the eliminated, 42 had minor injuries, 3 had serious injuries.
Emergency treatment has been administered, and Doctor Wang is already waiting with the medical team in the square.”
“Good, keep monitoring.” Xiao Yong nodded and began moving around in front of various screens.
Half a day later, Su Yuan finally entered the target red area.
“Steel Flame Finger!”
Su Yuan’s figure flickered.
He extended his steel-like right index finger, easily piercing through two Eighth Stage Forest Wolves that suddenly leaped from the forest.
Since the last battle with the Green Flame White Wolf, Su Yuan discovered that combining Hardened Iron Armor with Steel Flame Finger increased its power significantly more than using Steel Flame Finger alone.
So on this journey, except for the three initial Miasma Serpents, which were poisonous, Su Yuan tried using Hardened Iron Armor and Steel Flame Finger to solve battles.
The effect was surprisingly good.
By partially hardening his fingers with Hardened Iron Armor, Steel Flame Finger at three percent power easily dealt with all Eighth Stage star beasts.
At five percent power, it could kill most Ninth Stage star beasts.
This saved a lot of star power and still posed considerable power!
Of course, it was easy due to hitting the weak points.
For Su Yuan, with a C-level agility talent and Wind Walking, this wasn’t an issue…
Su Yuan casually took out the locator, snapped the two Forest Wolves, and took out their star cores.
He then opened the locator’s map to check.
“I’ve almost covered the entire red area, but I still haven’t found the Bronze-level star beast.
Could it have left?
Logically, Bronze-level star beasts have strong territorial awareness and shouldn’t wander off.
Is my luck really that bad?”
Su Yuan had killed many star beasts along the way, including three Ninth Stage ones, but it wasn’t enough.
The Bronze-level star beast was key.
“I’ll search thoroughly once more.” Shaking his head, Su Yuan put away the map, deciding to conduct a carpet search…
